Hawaiian Chicken Meal Prep Bowls

Hey friends! I meant to post this recipe yesterday, but I haven’t been feeling too well this week. Ugh. Today I’m feeling much better and am excited to share this deliciousness with you all! I have been making these HAWAIIAN CHICKEN MEAL PREP BOWLS for about a year. We went to Hawaii last June, so of course, we were eating healthy and exercising before to get into swimsuit shape. That’s when I came up with this recipe. We loved it so much I make it all the time now. 🙂

Seasoned barbecue chicken, bell pepper, fresh pineapple, red onion and zucchini noodles are all inside these easy and awesome meal prep bowls! I’ll make about 6 or 8 for Kale and I on a Monday and we’ll eat them for lunch or dinner during the week. They are so yummy and super healthy. I love that you can make healthy food taste so good, and that’s exactly what these bowls are. Sometimes I’ll use asparagus instead of the zucchini noodles. Either way, they’re totally worth making. I hope you guys give them a try soon!

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Grease skillet with cooking spray.

Season chicken with salt and pepper then add to the skillet. Cook and stir for 10 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center. Add barbecue sauce and diced bell pepper to skillet and continue to stir until bell pepper is crisp-tender and everything is heated through. Remove skillet from heat.

I’m sorry I have to ask do we add the barbecue sauce e in the pan or after it’s cooked? I assumed it was in the pan while cooking and mine isn’t as saturated which could just mean I used a little less but I would like to make sure. I’m sure it will be good either way! P..S. I love so many of your recipes!

Hi Holly, this sounds great! I’ve been looking for some easy meals to prep ahead to keep me on track with healthy eating during the week. One question, when do you add the BBQ sauce? Do you toss it with diced chicken before browning??
